Best Decorative Concrete Designs Used for Courtyards Patios

See the difference once you see the courtyards patios decorated with today’s innovative design. Are there more ways you can decor a drab and cold concrete? 

Check out how you can maximize the look of neutrals and the elements you see outside to beautify the ordinary outdoor flooring.

Read on and learn new ways to design the concrete floors in your courtyards. There are five listed for you.

Five of the Best Designs for Your Concrete Courtyards and Patios

1- Add patterns

Concrete floors boast of their natural beauty. You may feel that a plain and gray surface cannot catch anyone’s eye. Put it outside, and you will probably not notice it primarily when the grey surface beneath you gets absorbed by the greens and other shades of the outdoors.

Instead of changing the colors, why not use it to its advantage. And the best way to flaunt the concrete is to add patterns to its surface.

2- Stain the surface

No, it’s not what you think. What we mean by stain is decorative staining. A concrete flooring application uses a specific coloring technique to enhance a surface’s look by improving its tone or color.

Staining does not have to use complex shades of paint. One way is to use a water-based stain. Using this will add a rich earthy hue that coincides with the style for the outdoors. Another is acid-based stain. Using this technique, on the other hand, will create a washed-off pattern or style. This look gives a more natural appeal that looks stunning when mingled with the other outdoor elements and design.

3- Creative with colors

Look again at our number two idea. While concrete can use applications to flaunt its natural aesthetics, you can get creative with colors via other elements. 

Your courtyards will have walls or enclosures that you can use to create a seamless transition from the flooring going up its vertical counterparts. Choose colors that unify gray and earth-themed colors.

Or, you may use contrasts to make an illusion of light going dark or vice versa.

4- Decorate with Overlays

If you have old concrete floorings in your courtyard, you do not need to worry if you have to dig them out and throw them away. You can reuse those and resurface them with decorative overlays.

Overlays are added as a new layer of concrete. The first question you may have with this is how to make the old look seamlessly attached to the new ones? Well, that is why local flooring contractor Corpus Christi is here to help you. 

You can only achieve polished and unseamed overlay decks and patios when you let experts with years of experience work for you.

5- Build Rustic Retaining Wall

To complete the overall look of the courtyard, you can build retaining walls in strategic places. These retaining walls may serve as plant boxes where you can set up color bushes or flower pots. 

You can add steps or extended platforms to create a layer of surfaces. These will offer you spaces for lounging, flower pot holders, and dividers to assign specific areas in your courtyards. tiered retaining wall

Keep these spaces functional when you upgrade their form by adding features that you have not done before. It may sound hardcore for you to redecorate existing concrete in your courtyards and backyards. But if you ask the right team to help you, a seamless outdoor flooring that looks new will greet you as you take that step outside.
